Famous quotes containing the words left and/or state:
“I am secretly afraid of animals.... I think it is because of the usness in their eyes, with the underlying not-usness which belies it, and is so tragic a reminder of the lost age when we human beings branched off and left them: left them to eternal inarticulateness and slavery. Why? their eyes seem to ask us.”
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
“If nationality is consent, the state is compulsion.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
